In İskele, right at the water's edge: the catch of the day is picked from the counter, grilled over coals and reaches the table smelling of the sea.

Picked from the counter, cooked over coals

This table has been set on the same pier for years. The sign was renewed and the hall grew; the way never changed: the day's fish, the coals, and the sea right below the table.

Waves at the window

One whole side of the hall is open sea. On cool evenings the glass slides open and salt air joins the table.
